Besides, she had never imagined that Gu Yundong would divorce her. She assumed that her position was very secure since she had given the Gu family four sons. She had not even considered the possibility of divorce.
But in the end, it was her son who was the first to suggest a divorce.
Zhou Ping rushed over, but Gu Jinxuan reached out and grabbed her. Zhou Ping screamed frantically and shouted angrily, but Gu Jinxuan remained unmoved.
He looked at Gu Yundong. “Father, don’t waver. Mother is completely befuddled. She cannot remain in the Gu family any longer. She has committed a crime. A crime, do you understand? If Second Cousin had not discovered it early and managed to salvage the situation, it wouldn’t just be her in trouble. It would be the entire Gu family.”
Gu Yundong’s eyes reddened. How could he just make a decision like this?
They had been married for decades, and he had four children. He had never considered divorce!
If they divorced, what would happen to the children?
Little Seven and Little Eight were not yet adults!
But Gu Jinxuan was determined. His stand was that his father should file for a divorce immediately, without showing Zhou Ping any mercy. “Father, you must divorce her this time. The faster the better. I don’t want to be hindered by a mother like that in the future. It was not easy for our family to achieve its current success. The family fortune that everyone has worked so hard to build up might be destroyed in her hands. Divorce her now.”
Little Seven and Little Eight immediately burst into tears.
Gu Yundong’s heart ached to see his children crying.
He had never thought that his family would end up like that.
“Little… Little Five! After all, she is your mother and your brothers are still young! Their university entrance exam is next year. They…
“If you’re really thinking about them, you should divorce her now. No matter how well they do in the future, Mother will destroy it all. She has gone completely overboard this time. If you don’t punish her, what will happen next time? How much money do you have to pay her debts? Are you able to erase everything that she does?”
How could he erase it? The things she had done could not be completely erased. Besides, Zhou Ping was not a particularly capable person. It was far too easy to trace what she had done.
“Gu Jinxuan, you heartless creature. I don’t want a divorce. I will never agree to a divorce. Let me go, let me go…”
No matter how hard she struggled, Gu Jinxuan ignored her. He continued to look at Gu Yundong. “Father, think about it carefully. If Mother carries on like this, soon you won’t be able to resolve the mess that she creates either. Within the Gu family, our branch of the family has always been the least powerful. Second Uncle, Second Cousin and Oldest Cousin are all on the ascent. The Gu family has a very bright future. Our grandparents will never permit the existence of hindrances like us.”
Gu Yundong was taken aback. “You… What do you mean?”
“I don’t mean anything. I’m just telling you the facts. Everyone has children. Everyone wants to live in the lap of luxury for the rest of their lives. Oldest and Second Cousin work so hard. Do you think they are working so hard for us? Why should they allow their hard-won positions to be destroyed by my mother?
“Little Seven and Little Eight are still young. In the future, they will need the help of their older cousins and the family. But who holds the authority in the Gu family? It is in the hands of Second Uncle, Oldest Cousin and Second Cousin “If my mother causes so much trouble that it affects the entire Gu family, you may be willing to sacrifice your family’s future to make up for it. But the Gu family will not be willing. If you refuse to divorce her, then ultimately, our entire family will be forced to leave the Gu family.”
Gu Yundong was completely floored!
“No impossible. Your grandparents wouldn’t do that. Your uncles wouldn’t do that either.”
